Arjun Kapoor and Varun Dhawan are good friends since childhood. Both of them also took acting training together. Recently, Arjun told in an interview that when they were making a short film together, he was not happy with his acting. He jokingly said that perhaps because of his poor performance he did not get much work from Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions.
In a conversation with Galata India, Arjun Kapoor was asked about his and Varun’s decision to start a production company together. Responding to this, Arjun said, “Varun fooled me. He told me that I have a good role in a seven-minute short film. We were taking Barry John’s acting classes at the time. He decided that he (Varun) wanted to direct the final film. I also said okay and how bad will he do?
Arjun Kapoor said, ‘This film was directed by Varun Dhawan. The shooting of the film was completed. But when I saw the final edit of the film, I came to know that actually he was the hero in the film and I was the villain. Varun did not tell me anything during the shooting of the film. I came to know about this later.
Arjun further said, ‘His dialogues in that film are absolutely perfect,’ he just looks like Masoom Swami type. You can watch this film on YouTube. This is one of those rare films in which Varun can be seen wearing a T-shirt. But I am not telling you the name, because I am not very proud of it.
Arjun said jokingly, ‘Varun had also shown the film to Karan Johar. I think this is the reason why at one time I got less work than Dharma.
